ganadora de un concurso de belleza


Explanation:
Con esta frase se pueden barajar mútiples opciones. "Reina de la belleza" me suena bien si se específica el concurso y el año (me ha venido a la cabeza la imagen de los concursos que hacen todos los años en el instituto de las películas americanas).
Otra sugerencia.
Suerte.
